Hey guys

im new so leave the bashing for another day :P

i got my iphone on launch day, waited at 6am for the shop to open
got the phone home a few hrs later and the camera didnt work!!

called them straight up 'yeah sorry theres nothing we can do' was my answer
they did give me 1 option, to borrow a old crappy used phone for upto 2 weeks while they send my iphone off to be fixed!!

crikey, i just paid a grand for this phone and now they want me to use a ****ty old beaten up phone while mine gets fixed? no thx

called apple, they gave me a few options

1) send it back to them and have no phone to use till its returned
2) put $1000 on hold on my CC while they send out another phone (hang on i just paid 1k here for this 1 and now you want to put another 1k on hold? no thx)
3) come into the nearest apple store

option 3 sounded great, go in, swap it over, yeah!
so i looked for the nearest apple shop, 600km away, arrghh :@

anyway short end of the story it was cheaper for me to fly from adelaide and swap it over, ended up hiring a car n few other things on the way in melbs tho

so now i have a fully working iphone 4
